1. Links are provided to topics in the AnimeMusicVideos.org forums, pages on the AnimeMusicVideos.org site, and nowhere else. (amv-contest-lists.org is also excluded.) The reasons for this include consistency, longevity, and ease of maintenance.

2. Linked topics must include enough information to identify the videos. A topic that simply links to another site or page will not be included. A topic that only lists the entrants' names will also not be included in this list.

3. Topics are not limited to those that cover anime conventions. Any contest or exhibition that meets rule 2 will be put on the list.

To get around rule 1, someone could crosspost contest results to this forum. But don't post by a reply to this topic; create a new topic with an appropriate title.

There are pluses and minuses to this approach. The primary advantage is that everything is in one place that is familiar to most participants in contests and exhibitions.

On the down side, presentation will be inconsistent and difficult in some cases. I can only encourage posters - and contest organizers, in particular - to make legible lists, making use of the "vidid" tag wherever possible.

I think the person who started it does not update it anymore.... as for the org's listing, it is suppose to be done by the coordinators, however I always figured in the end that the only way to maintain such a list and winners is that someone will just have to do the work and maintain it (that usually how it always goes )
